My fellow convicts,

Today was an excellent test of my perseverance and motivation. That shit was so cold out there today for me. My body is absolutely not ready for that yet. I’m not sure what it was, and it wasn’t even snowing but that it was cold! That was a pretty intense battle going on in my head for about two hours before the I got out of work. It was actually kind of amusing. I’m never really sure how I can convince myself once I get on that negative train for so long!

Alas, I’ve come out ahead. Lost a few seconds on the Back Lever as well as the First round of the L-Sit’s. I also improved on a few things, so it all balances out. I was a bit disappointed in my Archer Pullups a bit today, but I’ll get it back. I need to setup my pullup station so that I can just workout in my apt again. I dont want to, but maybe once my body has acclimated to the cold I’ll go back out to the park.

Hows things Convicts?

Posting this a day late. It was freezing yesterday though! Cold for working out at least, and its only going to be getting colder too. Some numbers went down, some numbers went up. Nothing out of the ordinary. I was pleased with my progress on the Advanced Tuck Front Lever though. They’re coming along nicely. I think the Back versions are much easier though … well as easy as any lever can be 😉

Whatup Convicts,

Well hot damn hot damn, back to the grind. I forgot how important motivation is in all this working out business. Very much enjoyed the workout today, although the entire time walking to the park my mind kept having this internal struggle. Do you remember how easy not putting in the work is? That was an excellent test for myself, the delaod week I’m talking about.

Not only did I feel stronger, although my numbers dropped, my body was ready to perform. Everything just felt good. I honestly even enjoyed doing the Burpees during my warmup today! Deload weeks are the best, I can’t believe I forgot to program that in my routine. Ah well, it’s finally happened, and my body has more than recovered. Time to put the heat on, and get some goals met!

Oh I forgot to mention how much I missed the endorphin surge you get after a solid steady strength training session. The weather was amazing, there was this cute little asian kiddo and her family playing and laughing a lot. It was really a super stress relieving, amazing workout today.

Whatup Convicts,

So my phone died before I was able to save the workout yesterday … again. I do remember making fairly decent progress though on most of the workouts. Oh, and P.s. … I’M A CERTIFIED MovNat Trainer now!!!!!!!!!!!!!
